Win7 Home Task Manager consistently indicates no SM is running after a deinstall of v.2.30. Fortunately, my profile info was left untouched by the v.2.30 deinstall process. BUT, I still get the error message that the v.2.33.1, the newest version won't install because another copy of SM (version not stated) is running. After clicking past the error message window, however, I find that v.2.33.1 has, in fact, been installed. How do I get rid of this nuisance error message? Although I have been around since the MS-DOS days and don't really understand much about any Windows version after W98, I can't help but wonder if some odd bid of something has been left by the SM v.2.30 deinstall process in the registry or some other obscure place or that the v.2.33.1 install mechanism code fails to do something it was supposed to do. Again, any ideas on how to get rid of the nuisance error message and what is causing this problem? Thanks, in advance for pointers to tutorials, and any suggestions or advice. Knowing nothing about the issue, I am reminded of times when I had to reboot the whole computer because some program had left an in-use flag on a file that a program needed and only a reboot would clear it. You name what what I tried to describe: some program - in this case, the SM upgrade process - has left an 'in-use flag' alive. If that is the case, how does one get rid of the unwanted 'in-use flag'? Multiple reboots of the PC didn't solve the problem. Henrik, it might be a bit drastic but have you tried completely deleting SM (but leaving your profile in place), then used a registry cleaner to remove any bits left-over by the removal and then done a complete re-install of SM?? Of course, before trying this, download a complete new copy of whatever the latest version of SM that you like is and, better safe than sorry, copy or back-up your profile. Thanks for the comment. I have, in fact, already deleted SM twice and reinstalled it and that didn't fix the problem. The problem with using a registry cleaner is that one needs to know what one is looking for. My past experience is that most registry cleaners aren't particularly discriminating and often delete things one doesn't want deleted (I have had bad experience in that regard). Accordingly, their use has to be handled in a very precise way to avoid problems. The problem remains, assuming I am looking for some odd bit of SM code remaining in the registry, what is it I need to look for? I would had hoped someone from the SM development team might chime in with some pointers on what I should be looking for. I use revo uninstall to really clean the system of trash, be it files, directories or registery items. Of course, save/backup your profile. My experience with Revo is mixed and I find it too aggressive and frequently insufficiently discriminating. I.e., one needs to know what one needs to protect in the registry and what one is looking for that is causing the problem at hand. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

SmnkyLst: Crash During Online Editing, Browser Webpage Redirected
SmnkyLst: Crash During Online Editing, Browser Webpage Redirected Random operation drove me nuts. But it became more often the norm crashed online document editing! Problem: The Seamonkey browser attempted to load a non-existent webpage, using prior captured text, any word or phrase. This caused trouble interrupted any process, especially when entering data or editing a file online. Using a laptop computer with track-point middle button it is possible to scroll up down in webpage documents. But this triggered a crash in edit mode online, editing a text file in a webpage - proofreading in this case. Every time the middle button was pressed to grasp the page move it with the track-point up or down, the possibility of often a crash occurred, the browser went most anyplace based on prior captured text in the buffer. Even www.about.blank.com became a new webpage. Just pressing the middle track-point button often sent the browser to a fake webpage. In About.Config, I discovered the problem. 2 items set to default as true: middlemouse.contentLoadURL true middlemouse.paste true I changed/reset them to false, the problem ended. I believe default should be false to prevent the problem. This never happened before. Has something changed in an update, a default changed, another entry altered the basic operation of Seamonkey? Is this a Bug? Should it be reported? Can I set, should I set, something else to end the problem? Is my change going to cause another problem?
